I just joined the Bigger Pockets online community.

Meeting with Mike Jason around 1230 at his property if you care to join us?  

We’re thrilled you've joined us.

I did sign up for the 1-day webinar with Ted Thomas for $47 and found it interesting, but he does have an upsell to join his course. 

In Florida, can a newly licensed RE agent (not a Realtor and not yet working for a broker)  join  MLS independently  or do they have to join a local board or  the NAR first?

To get started, educate yourself on real estate investing, join local investment groups, analyze the market, prepare financially, find suitable properties, and analyze the deal.

Meaning, I can't tell if it's legitimate or not because it seems too good to be true if that makes sense.

I was interested in commercial and investment property, so joined a mid size commercial brokerage as a broker - associate.Most brokers/agents at that time, even more so than today, did not “specialize’, at least with very specific parameters.

Hey all, glad to join the forum here!

Even more baffling is watching other pros joining in on that.
